Vendetti Fence - Philadelphia's Local Residential Fencing

Philadelphia's humid summers and freeze-thaw winters trap moisture in wooden posts, especially if they're set directly in concrete. The constant dampness leads to rot at the base. At Vendetti Fence, we solve this by using pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact and setting posts in gravel for drainage. For existing rotted posts, we can replace them with galvanized steel brackets that lift the wood off the ground, extending the fence's life significantly.

Rust spots on wrought iron are often the first sign that the protective paint layer has failed, usually from road salt and winter moisture. If the gate won't close, the rust may have weakened the hinges or caused the frame to warp. We recommend catching it early—Vendetti Fence can sandblast the rust, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and repaint with a durable exterior enamel. If hinges are bent, we'll replace them with heavy-duty stainless steel hinges that resist corrosion. Delaying can lead to structural failure, so give us a call for a free inspection.

Property lines can be tricky in Philadelphia's older neighborhoods where survey markers are missing. At Vendetti Fence, we always recommend a professional land survey before installation to avoid conflicts. We can also install the fence a few inches inside your side of the line to be neighborly. If you and your neighbor agree, we can build a shared fence along the boundary—just make sure to get a written agreement. We've worked with countless homeowners in Brewerytown and Point Breeze to resolve these issues amicably.
